HOOPP reviews about "manager"

Workload is high and less breathing room

The manager has no technical background and no proper education to support the business need.

They are still figuring out professional development. No standardization in title or salary promotions. Managers and HR cannot explain next steps for one's career

Not sure how other teams work as they seem pretty independent, but TPG was great.

IT is disorganized, trying to adopt Agile but failing from a people process more than anything. The Transpfrmation has caused many rifts, teams divided against each other, inconsistent application of Agile by management and others still left behind in the command and control world. Pushing most management functions off to the teams under the guise of Agile, without discussions or acceptance on the receiving end.

Culture of fear Senior leaders constantly take pot-shots at each other No accountability. Managers throw people under the bus

Worst behaving employees get promoted to management. They only care about climbing the corporate ladder and not about the work that needs to be done. Honest, hard working people that have the company's best interest in mind get screwed over. Elaborate stories spun to get good employees fired. Nobody is paying attention what middle and upper managers are really doing.

- Micro managers - management hires externally before even considering internal hires - little to no WLB, especially in Plan Ops - managers requesting for overtime daily - overwhelming amount of work and not enough sufficiently trained staff since they keep hiring externally (poor training virtually) - poor software system - enhancements and improvements are always supplemented with work arounds which make work more time consuming and often cause more work than help - managers focused on numbers and SLAs and thus burning out staff - high turnovers and lots of health leaves - low base salaries not at market value even with bonuses
